Question

I am starting Algebra and I really dont get it , please help
rt-2y=y, solve for t

Answer 1

Do PEMDAS backwards

Answer 2

So first you have to get rid of the 2y and get it on the the other side so do the opposite if adding in original problem subtract is subtracting add

Answer 3

So your rt is on one side that's your goal is to get t one one side all by itself

Answer 4

Does this make sense? Ring a bell at all from what your doing

Answer 5

This is a little more visual of what kaydens1997 was saying ....

Answer 6

Given rt-2y=y, solve for t.

1. Add 2y to both sides of this equation. This will isolate rt on the left side and will result in a simple right side.
2. Simplify as much as possible.
3. Divide both sides of the resulting equation by r.
4. Write your answer as "t = ( ) / ( ).
